Marketing has begun for two very similar and quite boldly designed 8-story buildings on West 123rd Streets between Lenox and Seventh Avenues by the R & B. Development Group of which Jeffrey Bennett is a principal.
The two buildings are known as "Windows on 123." The one at 117-123 West 123rd Street has 26 condominium apartments, a garage, a fitness center and a roof deck. The other at 129 West 123rd street has 8 floor-through condominium apartments.
The building at 117 West 123rd Street will have a part-time doorman and a virtual door service and apartments will have thermal windows, white oak flooring, central heating and air-conditioning, radiant heating in floors in the bathrooms and terraces and balconies covered in Pietra Sierra limestone with stainless steel and glass railings. All apartments will have Bosch washers and dryers and kitchens will have CaesarStone Quartz countertops, Viking ranges, Bosch dishwashers and SubZero refrigerators. Bathrooms will have double sink walnut vanities with Rohl fixtures and Siberian Mink marble vanity tops.
The same developer and architect recently did a 8-story condominium building at 50 West 127th Street between Fifth and Lenox Avenues that is notable for its curved metal and glass entrance marquee and the curved center of its limestone facade and curved Juliet balconies.
Dan Damir Sehic of C3D Architects PLLC is the architect. Other partners in the firm are Kathleen Peragine and Paul Freitas.
The sites had previously been vacant and are separated by two low-rise residential buildings.
